Well, after months of planning and hard work, it's almost time to tidy my desk and set off for Miami. I'm looking forward to next week's Internet Telephony Conference and EXPO, which is shaping up to be one of the biggest and most exciting VoIP events ever.

I'm especially looking forward to several of the conference sessions, most notably the P2P VoIP discussion being moderated by our own Tom Keating. That's what I like most about this conference: we're always breaking new ground and presenting the top minds in the industry. For example, the P2P session will feature:

Niklas Zennström, CEO & Co-Founder, Skype Technologies
Dmitry Goroshevsky, President and CEO, Popular Telephony
Mahshad Koohgoli, CEO, Nimcat Networks
Peter Sisson, President & CEO, Teleo
and
Gary Hermansen, President and Chief Executive Officer, Global IP Sound

That's quite a powerful lineup. And that's what we offer our attendees. 

Mostly however, I look forward to meeting with the magazine readers and the conference attendees to get their take on VoIP, to hear what they have to say as they share their excitement, their trepidation, and their views on the technology.

To everyone who will be in Miami, I wish you safe travels. I'm looking forward to seeing you at the show!
